Quick Start

Get your first source audit running in under 5 minutes.

1. Create a project

Log in to app.tenantlift.cloud and click New Project. Give it a name (e.g. "Contoso → Fabrikam migration").

2. Connect the source tenant

On the project page, click Connect Source Tenant then follow the setup wizard:

  1. Choose Auto Setup (recommended) — this uses the multi-tenant TenantLift app registration.
  2. Click Grant Admin Consent — you'll be redirected to Microsoft's consent screen. Sign in as a Global Administrator on the source tenant.
  3. Once consent is granted, TenantLift will verify the service principal and confirm all required permissions are in place.

Tip: TenantLift now requests all permissions (standard + enhanced audit) in a single consent flow. No separate step is needed for the enhanced audit modules.

3. Run the source audit

After connecting, click Run Discovery. TenantLift will scan:

  • Recipients (mailboxes, shared mailboxes, distribution lists)
  • Groups (Microsoft 365 groups, security groups)
  • Mailbox sizes, OneDrive quotas, calendar stats
  • Licence assignments (tenant SKUs + per-user licence details)
  • Delegations & permissions (send-as, send-on-behalf, folder permissions)

The discovery runs in the background — you'll receive an email when it's complete.

4. Review the dashboard

Once discovery finishes, the Source Audit dashboard shows:

  • Mailbox count, size distribution, delegate map
  • Group inventory with membership counts
  • Licence audit — SKUs, assigned seats, available seats
  • Domain and permission summaries
